EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of the "Statue of Zeus at Olympia" takes us back in time to ancient Greece, where this magnificent wonder stood as a testament to human achievement. Created by renowned sculptor Phidias in 433 BC, this awe-inspiring statue depicts the mighty god Zeus seated on his throne within a grand Doric temple. As we gaze upon the image, we can almost feel the energy and excitement that once filled the air during the Olympic Games held in Olympia. The steps leading up to the temple are bustling with people from all walks of life - worshippers paying homage to their deity, wrestlers engaging in fierce competition, runners sprinting towards victory, and riders proudly displaying their equestrian skills. Crowned winners bask in glory while others look on with admiration and respect. It is through Quint Lox's lens that we are transported into this vibrant scene frozen in time. This Latin print by Philips Galle and Hadrianus Junius captures not only the physical beauty of Zeus' statue but also its cultural significance. Located in Peloponnese's Greek region, it symbolizes both religious devotion and athletic prowess – two pillars of ancient Greek society. The Liszt Collection has brought forth yet another remarkable piece from history that reminds us of humanity's enduring fascination with artistry, athleticism, and divine power.
